I am white. Many positive reviews from black community, but what about white skin pigmentation? Does Piona make the general face color pale?

I can honestly tell you that it didnt do anything for me. I am hispanic, olive skin. I dont know where all the good reviews come from. I saw one that made it soynd asnifnit was going to really bleach your skin, thats either fake or a total exaggeration. Sorry, i so far havent found anything that really works.

I actually think it works better if you have darker skin. The brown powder is really pigmented. I can only use a little bit because it goes a long way for me. But then again, I have light skin. As for the rest of the colors I feel that the darker you are, the better they will look.

Looked at some other responses and I am puzzled - I have had no issue with it. Zinc oxide and Titanium are PHYSICAL blocks, not chemical, so yes you would look "pale" but not white faced. You can always put foundation on top of it.

I have a deep tan complexion, and it does start off white-ish, but it is fine after it dries. I wear this with and without makeup.

Same thing. My face is darker an my body lighter. I had a drug reaction and the sun burnt my face. I didn't see any result. My tone is bronze.

I'm also from America. I have dark Asian skin and I also tan easily so I don't really notice any whitening. I do like the product it blend well with my skin tone and looks like I got nothing on. Half a pump goes a long way.

i am Latino, and it looked fine on my skin. no weird miscoloration. the paint is pretty pigmented and non see-through, so as far as I know you shouldn't have any problems. :)

I don't know for sure, but from my own experience I have some white patches on my skin, and the product doesn't change it, it didn't peel the white patches and it doesn't take the white patches off, but it helped to peel and lighten the dark pigmentation that surround what I'll vitiligo area of my skin.

it looks like a light beige color, but I believe it has a whitening agent in it so your face will probably look really white. I've read from other beauty bloggers who have tried this, and they don't even recommend this for people with fair skin.

Yes it is!!! I'm light to medium skin as well and it gives me the best highlight!!! Now with medium to dark skin it does the same but a darker skin tone if they don't want that bright highlight that they will get with the banana powder color Ben Nye offer other colors that will give off a beautiful highlight as well.

This is more suitable for brown/wheat-ish skin tone, I would say. However this does not leave a white residue. I believe there is a variation for fairer skin tones. Please check out.

I am hispanic so I don't know. But I have an olive colored skin and it worked really well. I wish I could answer this question better.

I have not experienced having black heads, but it does leave my face with a glow, tightness, and almost a flawless complexion.I am asked often about what I use on my face. I have had no side effects from using this soap. About to order more. It is raw so be careful when using it.

I'm olive tone. Basically the way the product works is that when the dark spots fade, there will be a lighter skin tone underneath but only for about 4 - 5 days. It's blends in together again. I've love it. I have new age spots popping up all the time so now I've been using it all over my face with my normal moisturizer. It seems to be holding them at bay. Good luck!

If you meant brightening in the sense of healthier looking, then yes, my face look brighter. It is not necessary whiter in the skin color, although taking this may contribute similar affects, it is really because the skin gets healthier. I am taking great lengths to achieve this by good dieting and taking in this along with lipo-c daily. I think everyone is different, so I can only say this work for me.

I am also an African American, I use this daily, its very good for all types of skin color. It helps removes dead skin, blackheads leaving your skin smooth. Also try using witch hazel as a toner to help minimize pimples. I have had severe acne on my forehead, this regimen has helped me a lot. I am acne free and my face is even toned and soft. I also use Johnson&Johnson deep clean at night. As for scars, you should try coco butter to remove them. It helped with the tiny scar i had, I hope I helped
